Nebraska university's athletic activities are going at full speed now, wjfh probably 150 or 200 men working every day. Foot ball, track land cross-country are getting the finost attention these days, i Coach Henry Scholte is .sounding in shape probably one of the big gest vanjtfy foot ball squads that has ever turned out at Nebraska. Prospects are good for a winning aggregation this year. Schulte is putting his men through signal, prac- tice and light scrimmage this week aa final ' preparation for the game ith Washburn college. The Husker mentor wants to make ise of the Washburn game as more or less 'ot .a practice anair tor, ins huskies in case the Kansas aggrega tion does .not prove tod strong. ' He will put as many Nebraska men into the game as possioje. Most of the letter of last vear are in good shape niH. ' Billy Day, captain and center; John Pucelik, guard, arid' a' few others, are suffer ;ng from minor injuries. It is pos sible that Coach Schulte may have to start Nelson center oiMast year'i freshman team, in Saturday's gamcf. Forty-five men have turned out for track work already this fall and Captain John Gibbs promises that the squad will number 100" 1x:for the snow falls. Many pf last year' letter men are"" working out, as are a number of beginners. vCoach McMasters, former Ne braska track man, reports that 30 'nen are wo.-kirig for a place onthe cross-country team. Nebraska in former years has had a winning C'oss-country team and it is plannedj to have a 'good crew, this year. Many Legion Men Remain For Leonard-Britton Bout Cleveland, O., ' Sept. 30.

It is pretty hard to take a man who has olaved the outfield all his life and station him at the hot corner. It is to Johnston's everlasting credit that he has held up his own at third as well as he did. I don't like the Brooklyn catchers, and Robinson's team will suffer be hind the bat when his trio of catch ers is compared with either of the two American league topnotqhers Steve O'Neill or Ray Schalk. Miller 4-the veteran has developed into the most reliable of Robby's mask- men, and I expect to see n;m woric almost the entire series. The Brooklyn team has- little con fidence in either Krueger or Jfc.iuot. but Krueger, a hard hlttw, may get into a few of the games. Th Dnrlo-prs have fair Utility strength, and would not suffer much if Schmandt was ooiigea o shoes of either Konetchy or Kil duff. In the outfield, Lamar, an American league discard, plays a deep field and cajj hiU Robinson is Smart. The manager of the Brooklyn team, Wilbert Robinson, is one ot th hitrffest assets of the-National leaguers. He is a smart, heady lead er, unaerstanas nis men, anu scmum makes the-, error of starting the w?6ng pitcher. 'Besides (he haSsJhe valuable gttt ot icaaersnip. xiis men believe in him, and he believes in them,' ' , Pnhincnn sava lie has a better club this year than his chanvpioVs of 1916. In that I agree with him. The 1920 club is a gamer team than that of four years ago, whose men tal attitude on the eve ot the mo series was' the worse we ever have encountered. The 1916 team had absolutely no confidence in itself. It. took for granted the superiority of the Red Sox and' went into the series solely! to get the fat loser s portion. The 1920 team contains many survivors of lylo, but an en tirely different spirit dominates the present Brooklyn aggregation. Brooklyn s team tJatting average is .276, considerably lower than that of either Qeveland or Chicago in the American league. However; the Dodger average of .276 is 13 points higher than that of the Cincinnati Reds of 1919, which won the world's championship fyom the Chicago White Sox. , The Dodger .300 hitters . are Wheat, r"Myer. Konetchy and Grimes,- the pitcher. Wheat, Myers and Koney all come together in .the batting order, and gives Brooklyn a strong clean-up trio after Olson. Johnston and Neis, the fast lead off men, get on base. In the field the Dodgers have a club average of .967, and are not near as reliable as the Reds of last year who fielded .974. It was the steadiness behind their pitcher that enabled thelReds to make such a splendid showing last fall. , '"We finally come back to the pitch ers, the source of Brooklyn's great est strength. The Dodger staff of Grimes, Pfefler, Smith, Cadore, Mar quard, Mamaux and Mitchell is gen erally recognized as the best in the game. On the arms of those seven men hinge the hopes of Brooklyn fandom. If they fail or waiver the Brooklyn club would not- have the inherent strength to surmount such an obstacle, . . i Copyright, lJJO, by At Munro Ella's. Anaa-era to Tenterdaj 's Qaestloiis. , 1.

Hoyne Doubts Legality . of White Sox Indictments New York, Sept. 30. State's At torney Maclay Hoyne of Chicago, who was at the Waldorf, cast a can opy 'of doubt over the actions of bis assistants, and the Cook county grand jury during his absence. He leferred to the voting of the indict ments in the base ball scandal. I "I am uncertain," he said, ".whether any crime has been conv mitted. I don!t know anything about the stories, of indictments which have been returned in court. They may hare been voted, as re ported, but an indictment is not an .indictment until if has been, returned in court." Mr. Hoyne did not go into details with regard to his fears that nole?aI crime was committed by the White Sox players, but the'tenor of , his dis cussion indicated, just this: - "The eight White Sox took money to throw "ball games. They did throw the games, according to their own confessions. Therefore, was it any confidence game to obtain money under the promise - of throwing games,' when they actually carried out Jheir part of the bargain? In other words who was the 'confidence game when the gamblers who gave up ttaeir money, got, what they paid forV . y . - v Mr Hoyne intimated that some body will be-called upon the carpet when he gets back to Chicago. s "When I left Chicago a week ago," he said, 'I told my assistants not to conclude, the investigation until I returned. I wired them four days ago again instructing them not to complete the inquiry; that I had-information that I kad ' gathered in New York and elsewhere. I also r: quested the1 grand jury not to take any action until I returned." With regard, to v the rumored schisms, among his office staff, Mr. Hoyne threw, off all questions with this remark: "When the boss is away, mice will play." V , . - c.

"It is impossible for me to beli c that Joe Jackson and Williams have sail what the newspapers credit tu-ni with saying," said "Chick" Gandil this morning in a statement issued at the hospital in Lpfkin, Tex., where, he is recovering from an opertio',i for appendicitis. "If Williams has given out such a has been untruthful. tnd I shall give him a little trouble proving this stuff when I can get out of the hospital," Gaudil contin ued. "It is not going to be neces sary' for anyone to come down hfre after me to get me back to Chicago, for that is where I am going just as soon as my physician will allow me." When Gandil read- the state:ntn declaring him to be the go-between of the 1919 twdrld series gambling conspiracy he declared. . "That .s a lie and the perpetrator shall have an opportunity to show , his hand.

Wilbert Robinson, manager of the Brooklyn National league base ball club, cabled today on Charles H. Ebb-ta president of the club, to voice his objection to the proposal of Dis trict Attorney Lewis of Brooklyn to question the Brooklyn pennant win nerS concerning reports tjjat some of them have been approached by gamblers in efforts to "fix" the 1920 world series. ' ' After a conference this forenoon .with Mr. Ebbetts, Manager Robin son went to the district attorney's office to discuss with him rumors of "fixing." V It was indicated several Brooklyn players also would see Mr. Lewis today. After conferring with Mr. Robin-, son. Mr. Ebbets declared his club would not ask the district attorney not to press his investigation. Mr. Ebbets asserted that he -"welcomed investigation by any official or court in the country, and again expressed confidence players. in the integrity of his U. S.

Should an investigation disclose that the Chi cago White NSox players who re ceived money lor "throwing" the 1919 world's series failed to make a return to the internal revenue bureau on these funds for 'purposes of taxes, prosecutions will be instituted, it was said Thursday by George B. Newton, deputy commissioner of the ncome tax unit of the bureau. Mr. Newton said his office would make use of the infornjationbtaugh ;o light by the inquiry nowem?: conducted at Chicago. ' "Investigation of the 1919 income tax returns of the players involved will be mde," he said, "and if "y irregularities are disclosed immedi ate steps for prosecution will be in stituted." x i l Intentional evasion of the provi sions of the income-tax lawJs s. criminal offense, it was-pointed out, and is punished by a fine of $10,000 or imprisonment for one year, or both. ' h Base Ballrtote8 Chicago, ?ept. r9. cold weather kept the loyal squadron of White Sox from pratlcing yesterday in preparation for their closing games or the American league season In St. .touts this week. It so chilly on the south side that Manager Oleason did not venture out' to superin tend the tryout which he had scheduled for the makeshift team he had is expected to complete the schedule. The loyal players were all on hand but did not don their uniforms on account ot the frigidity, contenting themselves with discussing Jubilantly the confessions of their teammates which confirmed their be. lief that the world's pennant of yist fall was not won on its merit. . A notable feature 'of the morning as sembly was the absence of the high priced automobiles which formprl lined Ihe curb on Thirty-fifth street on such obcasloni. The only machine in sight this morning was Fabcr s llupmoDiio. i no us iui nm chlnes of the submerged seven were con spicuously absent. f Cleorge "Weaver was tho only one of the 8o.i players under Indictment who had the courage to appear at Comiskey. park. He came to seek an Interview with the bwner of the south sidi team in the hope of exonerating himself. He was permitted to seo Comiskey, hut at the conclusion of his visit left the bll park with his head down and declined all requests for a state ment as to the result ot his coaference. Comiskey after 14 hours tl recover from the shock of the confessions lof Cicotte and Jnson, appeared to bo nfore like htm seir than on the day before. Although stricken with sorrow over the disclosures of crookedness;' he appeared deeldedly hopeful for the benefit -of lae ball, now that tho confessions of the culprits have paved the way to cleaning up the game. The offer of the New Tork American league club to lend any or all of Its players to Comiskey for the remainder of the season did not make as much of a hit as tho suggestion from Harris Frasee of Boston, thqt each of the American league club owners contribute a player to the Chicago club for next year to re habilitate It after the wreckage caused by the gamblers and their exposure of their relations with tho players Sdirnwlpr tn Onit Jlayton, O., Sept. 30.
